- Thank You for Your Support & Next Steps Following SMRP Conference Cancellation - Dear SMRP Members and Conference Attendees, We want to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for your tremendous support and understanding following the cancellation of the SMRP Annual Conference due to Hurricane Milton, which is now developing into a potential Category 5 storm. Your safety and well-being were, and always will be, our top priority, and we are grateful for your patience as we work through this situation together. Since the decision was made to cancel the event, our team has been working around the clock with the venue, hotel, and various vendors to manage the many logistical details that follow. While the cancellation was a critical step to ensure everyone’s safety, we recognize that it brings a new set of challenges, and we are actively addressing each one. From hotel reservations to event contracts, our priority is to ensure that all elements are handled with care and efficiency. We understand that many of you have questions about refunds, rescheduling, or other next steps related to the conference. While we may not have all the answers at this time, please know that we are working as quickly as possible to finalize details. It’s important to us that you have clarity and peace of mind regarding your participation in this event, and we aim to provide you with updates and more concrete information within the next two weeks. In the meantime, we ask for your continued patience and understanding. This has been an incredibly complex and unforeseen situation, but we are committed to ensuring that all your concerns are addressed. Thank you again for your support, resilience, and for being part of the SMRP community. We will continue to communicate regularly as more information becomes available, and please do not hesitate to reach out to our team if you have immediate concerns or questions. Stay safe and thank you for being with us as we navigate these next steps together. Sincerely, Erin Erickson, Executive Director Society for Maintenance & Reliability Professionals (SMRP)

A quick message from our team. To anyone who planned on attending SMRP this week, we're sorry we missed you. However, we are very appreciative to the SMRP team for making the hard decision to cancel this year's event. This has given our team members the time to prep before Hurricane Milton makes its way over. If you're projected to be in the storm's path, please stay safe!

Dear SMRP Members and Conference Attendees, Due to the recent developments of Hurricane Milton, which is forecasted to strengthen and impact parts of Florida and surrounding regions, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the SMRP Annual Conference. This decision has been made with everyone’s safety and security as our top priority. Hurricane Milton is expected to bring severe weather conditions, including heavy rains, flooding, and strong winds, making it potentially dangerous for travel and gathering. In light of these developments, we believe canceling the conference is the most responsible course of action to ensure the well-being of all attendees, speakers, and staff. We understand the disappointment this may cause, and we will be sharing further information soon regarding refunds, potential rescheduling, and other pertinent details. Thank you for your understanding and support as we take these necessary steps to prioritize your safety. Please stay tuned for additional updates via email and our official conference website. Stay safe and take care. Sincerely, Erin Erickson Executive Director Society for Maintenance & Reliability Professionals (SMRP)

We’re excited to continue our SMRP Member Spotlight Series with our October feature: Victor D. Manriquez, SMRP Board Director, Certified Maintenance and Reliability Professional (CMRP), and Certified Asset Management Assessor (CAMA). Victor has been a dedicated member of SMRP since 2012, and here’s what he has to say about his journey: "Since 2012, when I got certified as CMRP and joined SMRP as a member, I found that the Body of Knowledge (BOK) and Best Practices publications give me the framework to organize and optimize the maintenance process. Now, as a consultant and trainer, I have the chance to present these tools to M&R practitioners. SMRP is also a great place to interact and receive support from other professionals engaged with best practices and a high sense of ethics. Since 2018, when I became an SMRP volunteer, I’ve felt like a protagonist of change, contributing to the progress of our profession, the industry, and society." Victor’s commitment to the industry and to sharing knowledge with M&R professionals across the globe perfectly exemplifies the values that make SMRP such a vibrant and supportive community. ?? We’re proud to celebrate members like Victor who contribute to the growth of our profession and lead by example! Want to join this incredible community and make your mark?
